This book covers recent advances in efficiency evaluations, most notably Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) methods. It introduces the underlying theories, shows how to make the relevant calculations and discusses applications. The aim is to make the reader aware of the pros and cons of the different methods and to show how to use these methods in both standard and non-standard cases.
Several software packages have been developed to solve some of the most common DEA and SFA models. This book relies on R, a free, open source software environment for...

This introduction to the field stresses how strategic behaviour and opportunism may impede planning, and how this problem can be solved by the organization of communication and decision-making, the design of control and information systems, and the development of incentive schemes.
